see WW2 nun who saved British soldiers' at battle of Dieppe dies aged 103 | World | News | Express.co.uk
“When a German officer pointed a pistol at a Canadian soldier, she stood between the gun and the wounded man and told the officer if he fired the gun the bullet ‘would have to go through me’”.
In 1942 British and Canadian soldiers suffered a devastating defeat and casualties when they raided the French port of Dieppe. This Augustinian nun was called the “angel of Dieppe” for the things she did then.
